Re: Viking MF on sale

How do these compare to Cobra MF from Autogeek? I have been using Orange premium Vroom towels from Target, but I think they are marring my paint after the years I have had them.

the cobra microfibers are excellent as are the vikings. the vikings are of better quality (softer, plusher, edging) than the vrooms IMO...

Re: Viking MF on sale

BigAl3,
I agree with everything you've suggested but I've had different luck with my Purple Cobra Jrs. They were relagated to door jambs soon after I got them. I was disappointed in the quality of them. I think the green Viking is considerably better.

the plushness and softness of these is nice, you can use them to remove polishes, lsp's, QD, etc., and are a perfect all around towel . some of these really thick/plush towels these days are only good for certain things and are useless in other areas...

I'm glad I "stocked up" - at these prices, I scored big time. Kind of gives you an idea what the mark up on MF towels must be.

Re: Viking MF on sale

Mine showed up yesterday and the green towels are much softer/fluffier than myolder Cobra towels. Wash the green ones separately once or twice because they will bleed. Ask me how I know...
